Merton Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 The bag is well worth it, I dropped my RM800 out of a car last year and it landed on its corner. The bag has a hole in it now where the chassis pierced it but that was it. Amp is absolutely fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lou24d53 Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 That gig bag actually looks like it has enough room to hold the cables you need, unlike some. The case that came with my current head, Quilter BB800, is as tight as a gnats chuff by comparison! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess you could squeeze a lead or two inside the amp compartment itself I guess. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassAdder60 Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 No bag supplied and out of stock at Ashdown at present Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merton Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 That's a shame, I was about to buy a new one - I have the older design with only a front opening. The dual front/rear openings to allow the amp to stay in the bag is a much better idea! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lou24d53 Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 Luckily I ordered when I did at 12pm when it was sitting at £479...fast forward four hours and it's back up to £599...! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I paid just over £300 for the cab last Dec I'm curious about the cab model (I know thew head and it just absolutely amazing). I saw two very similar cabs of the Ampeg PF, one being around 100 bucks cheaper. Which one is yours? I was going to ask if you like it, but I'm pretty sure you do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had an email from GAK this morning to advise that the next shipment of these are not due in until END of April 2021, order will remain open unless I advise otherwise...so just as well we are in middle of a lockdown with no immediate need for it in the foreseeable...!!

BassAdder60 Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 The Ampeg cab is PF115LF and yes it’s a great sounding cab rated to 400W 8ohms without the flip top Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BassAdder60 Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 I agree worth waiting for 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lou24d53 Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 (edited) Yeah, agreed. I've no immediate need for it just now anyway, my Quilter BB800 will serve when we can rehearse - IF?! - and I've a PJB BigHead which I can use for quiet practice at home in the meantime. I'll try clear the credit card bill for April and it will maybe feel like I'm getting a "free" amp by then...!! 😅 Edited January 6, 2021 by lou24d53 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lou24d53 Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 Just had another email - your product order is currently out of stock, but should be with us within the estimated timescale of 3 to 5 working days. Sorry, feel like I'm completely hijacking this thread...it's this lockdown you see...it's either this or I need chat to the wife...!! 😁 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassAdder60 Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 No worries .. hope you get the amp sooner than later 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just had an email saying my order has been dispatched after only yesterday I got one saying they weren't due back in until the end of April. That's a strange one, surely that wasn't a tactic to get me to cancel my order at the reduced price? 🤔 Happy with that anyways...👍 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
